Build notes

Built 13 October 2026 from the SWCCG Collecting Encyclopedia 3.2 (sealed specs, rarity, misprints, errors, Executive Gift Set, oversized cards), plus dated price sources for the pricing timeline (Potomac Distribution 2009, Quiet Speculation 2020, VGCultureHQ 2021, hobbyDB 2024, PriceCharting eBay sold listings 2025–2026).

No sourced price data found for 1996–2008 (period price guides such as Scrye or InQuest were not available online). The pricing timeline starts in 2009.
PriceCharting (Coruscant and Cloud City booster boxes) blocks Wayback: two save attempts on 13 October 2026 returned HTTP 520, and direct requests get 403. The refs say "Preserved copy: none". A swccg.com snapshot (route C) would fix this.
No wiki page yet for the Executive Gift Set, Japanese Hoth, the Premiere Introductory Two-Player Game, or Promotional foils, so these are unlinked.

The 2021 "$300" top card and the "$500 to over $2,000" boxes come from one blogger (VGCultureHQ), who doesn't say which card or which sets.

Inferred: late-set premiums (Coruscant boxes sell for about six times as much as Cloud City boxes in 2025–2026) follow from the smaller late print runs that Potomac and Quiet Speculation describe. No print-run figures from Decipher were found.

hobbyDB 2024 also lists Corellian Corvette at $730, but doesn't say which printing (it could be the 2000 DecipherCon promo foil), so it was left out.
A 2022 r/starwarsccg thread (x3kw5l) says chase cards rose 300–400% during the pandemic. This is forum opinion, so it was left out.

Blank cells, not '—' (style skill: missing data stays blank). Unsourced: starter MSRP and card count for most sets; Theed Palace packs per box; MSRP for the Jedi Pack and Rebel Leader Pack (mail-in/promo); totals for the Anthologies, Two-Player Games and Sealed Decks (the Encyclopedia lists contents only, so no totals were computed).
No wiki pages for A New Hope Revised, Hoth Revised, Dagobah Revised (left unlinked). Datacard Grok (talk) 18:13, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

Each value is the most recent single-price sold listing on the PriceCharting page (eBay), read 13 October 2026; sale date shown in the cell. Listings showing two prices (struck/offer) were skipped in favour of the newest single-price sale.
PriceCharting has no page for Premiere Limited/Unlimited, Hoth, Jabba's Palace, Revised ANH/Hoth, Endor, Reflections I–III, Tatooine, Theed Palace boxes/packs, or any Anthology, Two-Player Game or Sealed Deck; those cells are blank. Enhanced Cloud City 'sealed box' page (last sale 2024, product unclear) not used.
Snapshots of the 15 PriceCharting pages are awaiting hosting at swccg.com/snapshots/prices/ and Wayback capture. Datacard Grok (talk) 18:44, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

Blank price cells filled with swccgstore.com listed prices read 13 October 2026 (stock status in each ref). PriceCharting sold prices kept where they exist.
swccgstore's "Unlimited" (white-border) A New Hope and Hoth packs/boxes are taken as the Revised printings.
A New Hope Revised pack left blank: the store page shows three conflicting prices ($13.99, $24.99, sale $21.99).
Still blank: Premiere Limited box, Premiere Unlimited pack, Death Star II box; premium: both Two-Player Games, Rebel Leader Pack, Second Anthology (store lists only its premium pack). TCGplayer, Troll and Toad and CoolStuffInc were not checked.
Wayback save of swccgstore.com failed (404 from Save Page Now); 28 snapshots await hosting at swccg.com/snapshots/prices/. Datacard Grok (talk) 19:02, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

Premium products table: card counts are filled in only where a source states a total; blank cells have no sourced count.
